High Diastolic Blood Pressure and High Systolic Blood Pressure

 
Blood pressure is measured in systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. On a standard blood pressure kit, the systolic blood pressure is displayed over the diastolic blood pressure. High systolic blood pressure is when your hearts' beating blood pressure is too high. High diastolic blood pressure is when your heart's resting blood pressure is too high.

A normal systolic blood pressure reading would be less then 120. A normal diastolic blood pressure reading would be less than 80. Usually, the lower your blood pressure the better. There is no cause for alarm if you have low blood pressure unless it produces symptoms like, lightheadedness, dizziness or unusual weakness.

However, there may be cause for alarm if you have high blood pressure or suspect that you may have high blood pressure. Symptoms for high blood pressure usually occur after it's much too late!
